Still struggling with devstack+neutron but I think I'm getting a bit closer. Need to read up on tenant networks and provider networks and see where I can get myself.

In the meantime more gabbi.

I started work on a wadl2gabbi.py that is supposed to take a WADL file and generate a data structure useful for starting some YAML files to drive gabbi. There's enough information in the WADL files to get test names, descriptions, urls and methods (and probably more in some cases) which doesn't seem like a ton of help but is pretty nice in that it makes the lines in the coloring book.

However, the translation is incomplete in some cases (nova wadl uses entities) and fails completely in others (swift wadl, no results) and:

  • XML sucks
  • WADL appears to suck
  • A WADL file that is actually complete is hugely verbose and illegible.
  • WADL thinks pretty hard about methods (resources have methods which have names other than the name of the resource and the HTTP method)

I am so spoiled by the past.
